-Solid * If the profile curve is closed and planar, both ends of the extruded object are filled with planar surfaces and joined to make a closed polysurface. -DeleteInput * Yes: Deletes the original geometry. * No: Retains the original geometry. -ToBoundary * Extrudes the object to a boundary surface For more information, please refer to the [Rhino documentation](https://docs.mcneel.com/rhino/8/help/en-us/commands/extrudesrf.htm#\(null\)). --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
